I had a fantastic experience at this location! The atmosphere and seating options impressed me. It’s a live and upbeat vibe, they played lively Afro beats all night, but the music was too loud, causing a headache. There were plenty of seating choices, including outdoor and private rooms. Now, onto the food - it was delicious! I enjoyed the samosas, chicken wings, and red snapper jollof rice (though the spinach wasn't my favorite). Each dish was prepared to perfection, and the taste was unforgettable. Hookah available for purchase and they have a wide selection of items to choose from on the menu. The service was top-notch. Orders were taken and delivered quickly to our private room. The staff was attentive, friendly, and ensured an exceptional dining experience. They have a professional photographer who takes photos for purchase. I'll definitely return soon!

Excellent Kenyan restaurant. The barbeque beef cubes and sausage are fantastic! Grilled chicken wings are perfect, especially with sauce. Red beans and sides are great. They had a lot of dishes that looked fantastic. They were out of the African beer, but had a good IPA. Our server was very sweet and helpful. There was a saxophonist playing along with the house music. The place was fairly busy even for Thursday night. I find it to be a bit expensive for the amount of food you're getting, but most places are expensive for me these days and this is on the fancier side.

The location, food, atmosphere is great however, the service is not. It took 29 minutes for the server to take my order. Also the price is on the higher side and 20% tip is automatically added to your bill. No need to leave extra tip.

Absolutely blown away by the quality at this special East African restaurant and night club. The beef kebabs melted in the mouth and the goat stew was sublime. So much flavor. The oxtail stew was somehow even better. Sukuma wiki greens, cabbage, ugari, and chapati completed a great meal. A bit pricey but worth it. Michelin star level food.
